E-learning and Benchmarking Platform for Parallel and Distributed Computing

摘要

Emerging technologies and increased computing resources challenge the universities to establish learning environments, where the students will learn to efficiently utilize multicore or multi-chip multiprocessors. In this paper, we present a new pilot project with the following goals: (1) as an e-Learning platform for the course on Parallel and Distributed Computing, and (2) as a benchmarking plat-form to measure the algorithm performance indicators such as speed, speedup and efficiency of the parallel implementation.
